Such is the case with the Casino Adrenaline Welcome Bonus, which offers up to 1 BTC and 189 Free Spin to all new players who join and make a qualifying deposit. This bonus is released as a 110% Matched Offer, and while it's not quite as big or as impressive as the bonuses offered by Bitcoin casinos like 1xBit, it's more than enough for most players and was definitely enough for me.

After winning the final event of the British Poker Open for £840,000, having come into the final day as the short stack in danger of missing out on the money altogether, Tollerene opened up to us about his self-doubt playing No Limit Hold'em as opposed to his specialty format of Pot Limit Omaha. Speech pathology casino nsw.
'It's tough and it's kinda scary sometimes,' admitted Tollerene, 'I don't have all the confidence in how I'm playing. If I was playing PLO I'd be a lot more confident. I look at my hands if I'm worried and I feel like I'm playing pretty well.'
To say that's the height of modesty is an understatement, especially said in the moment after winning over a million dollars and after triumphing over Cary Katz in the £100,000 British Poker Open event for the second-largest score of his career.
'I'm sure I'm making a bunch of mistakes, as we all are, but overall I'm pretty pleased with what I'm doing. I can't think of like a bad hand I would that I would take back.'
Tollerene bossed the final table and won a superb Main Event. Before London, however, he'd done some soul-searching about carrying on playing poker.
'I hadn't played a lot of poker since Baha Mar and November. I actually came here to see my friends and enjoy being in London. I grew a little bit tired of playing.'
One of the key indicators for this surprising lack of enthusiasm was spotted in himself by Tollerene when he either won or lost.
'I noticed when I won I didn't care that much and when I lost I would be upset. And I think that's a bad sign.'
Tollerene tried to get some space from poker. But the distance didn't help him find anything else that interested him. He found himself wasting time and didn't feel well while doing it.

'I thought I'd come here, see my friends and maybe I'll if I enjoy the tournaments, maybe I'll start playing again. That was kind of my thought process.'
At this point in his career, Tollerene is very much finding his way back in and out of poker as he's unsure just how much he wants to dedicate himself to the game, he admits that the buzz he gets from it is second to nothing.
'I thought that something would jump at me and it would be exciting. But every time I go for that, poker's just so exciting and so adrenaline-producing and such a cool job that everything [else] feels kind of flat by comparison, for me at least.'
Tollerene is taking some time to focus on his health, and friends and family. He understands that those are the fundamental things in his life and is getting used to allowing his mind to slow down away from poker.
'Part of it is that the stimulation of everyday activities that should be enjoyable can feel boring or tedious. I think that's a big problem that I face in trying to move away [from poker]. Slower things just feed you in a different way that's not such a highly stimulating. It's a flatter set of emotions, instead of these like highs and lows. I'm honestly not really sure what the adjustment is.'
While he loves poker, it's apparent that the online phenom, known for playing at the highest stakes, is also slightly emotionally dependant on the reactions his success in the game brings. Tollerene, however, is clear about any dangers to the elephant-sized word in the conversation – addiction.
'I don't think any of us [players] would go broke gambling our last dollar or stuff like that. But when someone asks like ‘Do you have a gambling addiction?' then the answer is ‘Not the way that you think'. I like the rush.'
Tollerene is in total control of his love and issues with poker in equal measure. He has no problem sitting out of the game if he needs to, but is open about admitting he likes ‘the feeling in my chest' when playing huge games. The game of poker appreciates Tollerene's intuitive skill and magnetic personality at the table, and whether it happens soon or in many years time, when Ben Tollerene does decide he's three-bet his last combo draw, the game of poker will miss him immensely.

A Full Tilt Poker player has publicly posted a strategy chart for Full Tilt's new preflop-only push/fold game Adrenaline Rush, introduced earlier this month, calling into question the long-time viability of the format.
Poker Adrenaline Trainer
In Adrenaline, players can only raise or fold, removing any post-flop decision making. The buyin is set to 10 big blinds, and a 10 big-blind pot cap prevents any deep stack, strategic play. Tables are 4-max, fast-fold only.
Poker Adrenaline 2
The push-fold strategy is available publicly on Google Docs and shared by 'MartinC,' a poster on the 2+2 poker forums. The spreadsheet outlines the optimal open-shove ranges in each position, the correct call ranges for open-shoves, and correct overcall ranges (i.e. when more than two are already all in).
'Such an easy game, I wanted to teach my sister how to grind it and stake her,' martoncz wrote. 'But the rake seems way too high.'
Poker Adrenaline Card Game
There is some scope for exploitatively improving on this strategy with raise/fold and raise/call lines, but the strategy chart, if correct, would ensure proper equilibria play. The chart creator does warn that rake is not taken into account in the calculations, suggesting slightly tighter play than what the charts dictate would be more accurate.
Recent posts in the Adrenaline Rush thread on 2+2 demonstrate that the game may be very tough to beat, even with optimal play. Observed stats of opponents, posted by 'hypergeometry' (1, 2), indicate that none of his opponents, over a 300,000 hand sample collectively, have turned a profit.
Full Tilt is currently running knockout leaderboards with $60,000 in prize giveaways to promote the new format.
